@cindex empty lines
@cindex fringes, and empty line indication
Emacs can indicate empty lines at the end of the buffer with a small
image in the left fringe of the window (@pxref{Fringes}). To enable
this feature, set the buffer-local variable @code{indicate-empty-lines}
to a non-@code{nil} value. The default value of this variable is
controlled by the variable @code{default-indicate-empty-lines}; by
setting that variable, you can enable or disable this feature for all
new buffers. (This feature currently doesn't work on character
terminals.)
@cindex unused lines
@cindex fringes, and unused line indication
Emacs can indicate unused lines at the end of the window with a
small image in the left fringe (@pxref{Fringes}). The image appears
for window lines that do not correspond to any buffer text. Blank
lines at the end of the buffer then stand out because they do not have
this image in the fringe.
To enable this feature, set the buffer-local variable
@code{indicate-unused-lines} to a non-@code{nil} value. The default
value of this variable is controlled by the variable
@code{default-indicate-unused-lines}; by setting that variable, you
can enable or disable this feature for all new buffers. (This feature
currently doesn't work on character terminals.)
